Use the illustrated 1.5–4.0 inch pendant examples to compare proportions. The look also depends on your chain length and the wearer. Check the dimensions available for your chosen design, and confirm whether its quoted height includes the bail.
The rectangular nameplate examples range from 1.6 × 3.0 inches to 2.2 × 4.5 inches. Compare the lettering layout and overall proportions. For a custom nameplate, tell us your preferred width and height and share a reference image for the quote.
Compare the 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 inch examples for the scale you prefer. Check that your chosen chain fits the pendant bail, and use our chain size guide to compare lengths and widths.
